The course was great as all of the previous ones. Way to go. I am probably learning more from the way the course is presented than the content of the course itself. The content was already out there, its the presentation that makes it, well, 'sticky'.

I do have a suggestion to rectify a problem, if possible. There are some MCQs in the quizzes in this course that have an option like 'All of the above'. The system is also programmed to randomize the sequence of the answers which makes it possible to have this option of 'All of the above' on the first, second or third number. This either does not make sense (on number 1) or makes it confusing (on number 2 and 3). Can this be rectified somehow?

I really admire the wonderful work you did. At first, I thought the course was going to be useful mostly to get international validation, but what I actually found was the best teaching training I have ever received. Even simple concepts I had already studied at university were explained from a different and excellent perspective. I’ve been able to bring all this new expertise and experience into the class I teach. I feel I’m turning into a better teacher thanks to ASU. Thank you very much indeed!

I am greatfully thankful for giving me the chance to dive into that amazing world of Reading, Writing and Grammar stratagies so that I could modify my teaching style for my students to benefit more!!!

Although the skits are cheesy, they improve comprehension of the concepts discussed throughout the course. The course was still meaningful because it teaches you to integrate all skills in one lesson.

This course it is very important to guide us to do the best as a teachers. I would like to say thank Thank you very much for all team to offer this course to help us to do the best for students!

Content from ASU is high quality. Needed more instruction about grammar though.

Peer review is a joke. Most people don't even try or follow the basic instructions.

As an regular high school English teacher, this course was less helpful than the others - but great information if you have never taught writing!

Great, I just didn't like editing old stuff - I'd have preferred them asking for separate writing and reading lessons.

The teaching videos are idiotic and professionally demeaning.

I mentioned above I would like to have TESOL Certificate as it has been accepted all around the world. But the price is too expensive for me to afford the fee, because my school administration reduced my salary because of the economical problems they faced.

So I need financial aid for the certificate program.

Please help me.

2- I graduated from university in 2011 and during these years, in education world there have been too many new methods & systems which enable teachers to teach better. Because when I was at university as a student, we had just the blackboard and data shows in our classes. However, now we have multimedia rooms which include smart boards and other technological devices that enable students and teacher enjoy and learn in the class. So I hope that throughout this program, I will learn too many new, useful tips to use in my class and motivate my students to take part during the lesson. If I achieve to motivate my students, they will learn better .They will improve their English level.

Another advantage of this certificate program for my career is that I will get an excellent verified certificate which enables me to reach my goals. After having this certificate, I will apply to any colleges and I will get a job in the world as an English teacher.

3-I can not accept any loan interest because of my religion belief.

I highly, highly recommend this course and the previous 4 courses I finished. I look forward to watching the videos because they're so informative, and at the same time, they're engaging. The assessments make me think, which is what they're supposed to do. I especially like how the instructors explain the material: they provide metaphors that make the material "sticky"; they bring in theory; and in general, they work so hard to keep our interest. I'm on the sixth course right now and it's just as engaging as the previous five. A+ work, ASU TESOL team!

This course was very helpful because it helped me understand how to teach grammar by integrating it into the skills of reading and writing. Most of the time, I have taught Grammar as a separate component.

Through this course I have been able to see that there are more creative and effective ways to teach structure and rules. This does not mean Grammar Books are useless at all. Instead the relevance of Grammar can be found in Reading and Writing. As a teacher I can help students recognize this connection.

Thank you Professors!!

This course is easier to understand and apply in real life teaching. Our mentors did not use high faluting words, every lesson was in detail and on point. And as a learner, I also say that "wow! I am in the right track in teaching" upon listening to our weekly lessons. But most importantly, learning to create better Lesson Plan is the best part of this course. Thank you so much Coursera as well as to our dear mentors. I look forward to the next course. God bless everyone!

Wonderful course with great content and genuinely funny, dedicated and inspired lecturers. If there is any negative at all, it lies with the peer review part of the program. There are many reviewing students who cannot be bothered to provide a genuine review/feedback and simply cut and paste/type nonsense into the review window. Not sure whether this is something that could actually be addressed, but it is a demoralizing aspect of a great course.

Hello everyone. I am glad to study this course. I have learned the main methods of teaching reading and writing and how to teach grammar in an easy way. Thanks a lot for Arizona State University and Coursera Team for giving this great opportunity for Asian Girls. I reccommend it to every person in the world who has a huge desire of learning and improving their skills.

Sincerely,

Hello, In this course I learned to be more competitive, to feel more confident when preparing a lesson plan and to know how to lead with the students, guide them to better acquire the English language, also to improve my knowledge in certain aspects, it was a course that I really enjoyed due to I really like fables and I think is a very good way to teach.

Great course that gives a lot of understanding on how to put all of these three aspects of English teaching together. Following instructions and ideas from Teach English Now! the lessons will definitely go more smoothly and help students to achieve their goals.

Thank you for the amazing job Dr. Shane Dixon, Jessica Cinco, and Dr. Justin Shewell!

It was a fantastic journey of learning and teaching. Everything was organised. Before, I had no techniques for teaching. Now I am confident, and I have a way how to teach. All credit goes to ASU and its team members. You have given me a new direction. Well, the words are not enough to describe. I recommend all the teachers to learn from ASU.

I hoped the last assessment was not to add a video because this time I do not have any video recording materials like camera or etc.

the assignments were great and valuable.

I hope the quizzes do not focus on how much we can remember but on how much we could understand. examples given were understandable in this course of TESOL 2.

I want to thanks to the teachers who develop the course . The system is excellent because iT gives to the students time to organize to do every lesson in our way. i had health problems but i could finish the course by learning too much. it will help me as a teacher to teach in a diiferent point of view. THANK YOU.

The course is a good example of a teacher to follow. It is both a lesson and a good example of a good lesson plan, strong presentating and skillfull teaching methods. I follow it according to knowledge presented here. And see that all lessons from the first week till the 6th week are all alined. Thanks for that :)

I am thankful for the course to let me understand the break-down steps to help students in reading and writing. I applied some of the techniques and strategies in my current lessons to students. I enjoyed all the stories in this module and I enjoyed reading a few good lesson plans from peers. Thank you!

This course was excellent! I learned a lot of new techniques and information about how to incorporate reading, writing, and grammar into my English lessons. Also, the course Instructors created such fun videos that it was a joy learning all the information! Thank you so much for this wonderful course!

OMG I loved the story telling part of this course. It's really sticky! I enjoy Shawn's and Jessica's performances. It helped me realize that reading is available and shouldn't just be constrained to class readings and "summer booklists". I'm going to come back for further inspiration for sure!

I think it is very useful for me to teach english course in the furture even I am not a teacher now.I don't have no any experience of teaching,but this course really helped me out.How I will represent myself in a class,not only english teaching but also any other courses.thank you very much.
